Audacity is a free, easy to use software. It allows you to record audio and use different tools to edit that audios. Its features include amplyfying a recorded sound, deleting background noise, and deleting "silent spots" in your recordings.
Daniel_Herrera_Edited_Audio.wav In this example I followed these editing steps: * I selected and deleted parts of my recording that I did not need. These included the parts where I said, "Ummm", "Testing 1,2,3", and silent parts in my recording.
I silenced the start and end where there was static noise in the background and I also used the "noise removal" option under "effect" to take out unwanted noises.
